Multi-layer foam technology that flows stronger for longer
Pipercross uses triple layer foam rather than cotton or paper because foam has a far higher dirt-holding capacity. In real-world driving, that means consistent airflow and sustained performance where thin paper or cotton filters can restrict flow as they clog. The three-stage foam matrix works hard for your engine:
- Outer layer: coarse foam captures larger particles
- Middle layer: medium foam traps the majority of contaminants
- Inner layer: fine foam filters the remaining particulates
This design helps maintain peak power, torque and throttle response while offering an exceptional level of engine protection in all conditions.
Direct fit. OEM look. Performance upgrade.
This BMW 2 Series F22 218i panel filter installs in minutes in the factory airbox. It keeps the OEM appearance while delivering high-flow intake performance. Perfect if you want a subtle upgrade without the complexity of a full induction kit.
